Green burial is a way of caring for the dead with minimal environmental impact that aids in the conservation of natural resources, reduction of carbon emissions, protection of worker health, and the restoration
and/or preservation of habitat.

“The conservation of natural resources is the fundamental problem.
Unless we solve that problem it will avail us little to solve all others.”
— Theodore Roosevelt
